Patty Griffin - Up and Flying lyrics

Mostly I'm alone a lot Mostly I guess you're not Forgive me if I stop and stare I was just unprepared That the world has fallen at your feet You hardly even missed a beat And every day those wings beat a little stronger And every night for me just gets a little longer You've gone on a million miles from here Swept up like a feather in the air You make it look so easy, it doesn't seem quite fair Baby I'm still trying To get myself up and flying I should be farther along by now I just can't catch a breeze somehow I should be free to leave the ground No dreams left to weigh me down Could you tell me what I have to do I've been trying to deny the truth But here it is, living proof The one that I love loves someone new You've gone on a million miles from here Swept up like a feather in the air You make it look so easy, it doesn't seem quite fair Baby I'm still trying To get myself up and flying
